I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Cisco
Interview
It was University recruiting process. Written round followed by 3 interviews . Written was easy and many cleared it . Interview -First Round was simple - WAS ON BASIC c++ and aptitude questions. Second round was harder. Started with projects and went onto OOPS concepts and coding. The people I spoke with were friendly and seem very nice. Did not clear the second round. those who cleared the second round had a final HR interview which was a formality and got selected. Everyone I talked to were great and extremely helpful
I applied online, heard back with in a week, initial recruiter screening, manager interview, technical panel interview, then manager interview again. Technical was a mix of fundamentals and a couple of pretty challenging ones to know off the top your head.
Very casual, unorganised interview. Interviewers talked for the majority and had no idea who I was before the interview i.e. didnt review my CV or experience. Any questions seemed very odd the cuff and unrelated to the job in question.
Very thorough and detailed. Expect in depth questions and be ready with reasonings. I did find it difficult at some points but overall i did prepare well. If you remember your past experiences and concepts you won’t find it that much difficult.
